Summer Internship Programme - Investments - Investment Research - 2025

The Summer Internship Programme is for candidates in their penultimate year of a bachelor’s or master’s degree, graduating in 2026.

This program is designed to provide students with a challenging, meaningful and supportive internship experience that replicates, as closely as possible, the experience of being a full-time BlackRock Analyst. The program begins with an orientation that offers a thorough overview of the firm and the opportunity to hear from a number of senior leaders.

Following orientation, interns receive on-the-job training and are given day-to-day responsibilities to contribute to their teams throughout the summer. Programming also features a speaker series, mentoring and various networking opportunities, including activities with our employee networks.

If you enjoy this program, you should explore our Full-Time Analyst Program, which you can consider applying to after your internship.

Important:

Candidates can apply for only one programme (e.g., Summer Internship Programme or Off-Cycle Internship Programme) and up to two functions within that programme (e.g., Investment Research and Analytics & Modeling). You must apply for both opportunities using the same programme application. If you withdraw your application, you cannot submit another application for this programme this year.
